My "Little" Cube

Their white lines really highlight under actinic i'm trying to get a decent shot from my phone but it doesn't seem possible lol.

By the way, Sorry to have high-jacked your thread. :-X

Ok I've been told mysis has more nutritional value but I will buy vitamin enriched brine after they hopefully eat my mysis. It comes in little cubes you think I should feed them the whole thing at once?

Lol, it's fine. I'm glad a clown breeder is helping I was really unclear on some stuff.

They are. Brine shrimp are often referred to as "Popcorn". To us, Popcorn is Great. But has little to no nutritional value. Brine shrimp is pretty much the same. Vitamin enriched kind of helps with that. Some are even gut loaded and good for quickly filling the fish. Brine are a really good way to get a picky eater to get use to food being served the way you serve it. Eventually, They just start going after the food right off the bat thinking its the yummy brine. That will help adjust them to eating brine. My Black ice only ate pellets when I got her almost a year ago. Now, she eats anything that hits the water. LOL

As for how much to feed. I thaw my little cube in RO Fresh water. Than I poor out the "Waste" Water into a Fine Mess net. I than place the food of choice back into the container and fill it with some tank water. Often times the water the cubes are frozen in have nitrates & Phosphates in them that can lead to some serious algae issues. Especially in such a small tank. I only feed a little bit. Enough so that each fish gets a nice full belly. Than, the rest goes into my fridge until my next feeding.

I haven't entirely perfected it myself(Everyday we learn something new). I am sure others will chime in and help more. But I have learned enough from my own mistakes so that I can share it with you. :D

Sounds good the lfs employee told me they primarily snack on mysis and they gave me the exact same one so hopefully things go as well as they have been.

 

[ReefKeeper09]

Gotcha! Yeah, It's always a good idea to ask the LFS what they feed. Especially if you already saw the fish eat it before you purchased them.

Updated FTS?

Updated FTS?

My S4 mini camera is beyond terrible, don't worry good pictures will come soon!

 

[EW_Fish]

Sounds like a plan

What's better than a high-res picture? A video with background music! Check it out gais.

True Percula Pair - YouTube

I love clowns, the way they swim the way they eat just everything about them. True percs are my favorite as you can tell but I also love ocellaris, any ORA, and I will get a pink or orange skunk in the future(not in this tank). When I eventually upgrade to a 50-100g I will add my current pair to it but they're doing great in the 14g for now.

 

[Krimzon]

More Clown Pics! Day 5 of them being in my tank and they're doing great and eating flakes & mysis every other day.

What do you guys think my chance are of keeping a bulb anemone in my coralife biocube with stock lighting in the next month or so?

 

[Krimzon]

Aaand i have no clue why those 2 pics ended up like that, tilt your head guys lol.

 

[ReefKeeper09]

Were you able to find out the wattage on the lights?

 

[Krimzon]

I'm going to give coralife a call tomorrow but I think 36...

 

[ReefKeeper09]

Sometimes the bulbs say their wattage on them.

 

[Krimzon]

Nope, I assume it's somewhere around 40 though... liveaquaria states bulb anemones need moderate lighting and medium flow, I have a 240ghp koralia circulating pump.

 

[ReefKeeper09]

They may do well. Honestly I've never bulb anemones before.

 

[Krimzon]

I think it's worth a shot... and I won't adding any corals before I add the ba in.
